Cake Dome Sunday #18: Georgia Peach Pie

This week I made The Mister a Georgia Peach Pie. I must confess, I intended to make him a Rhubarb pie, but there is not any Rhubarb at all (neither fresh nor frozen) to be found in these here parts. Not yet, anyway. But I did have one last jar of peaches I'd canned last summer so I asked him if he'd mind instead of Rhubarb to have a Peach pie. He said that was fine.

I discovered this recipe for GEORGIA PEACH PIE on the Crisco website and chose to make it because it was made a bit differently than my usual Peach Pie. I liked the idea of the buttermilk, cornstarch, butter and eggs for the filling with the peaches. We were not disappointed.

For my pie crust I made it using butter instead of shortening or lard. It is very flakey, tender and delicious in taste and the texture is outstanding. I will not say that this is the only way to make perfect crust. I'll just say that this is how I like to make mine and I think they are outstanding.

Oh this looks super yummy. I tried a new peach pie recipe last year that had a layer of cream cheese on the bottom. It was delish. I will be trying yours. Always like to broaden my horizons. lol! I have rhubarb coming up nicely now. Never made a rhubarb pie. I really need to. Thanks for sharing SYC.
